A comparison of the patients with and without COVID-19-related mortality in terms of the laboratory findings at the time of COVID-19 diagnosis showed that the WBC count, neutrophil count/percentage, D-dimer, troponin, CRP, procalcitonin, and ferritin levels were significantly higher and the lymphocyte count/percentage wassignificantly lower in patients with COVID-19-related mortality (Table 4). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and COVID-19.
